Glenn Beck and John Boehner: The Conservative Criers

Well, I might as well put this in the category of my other two posts about Conservative pranksters Wally George and the Westboro Baptist Church. It's looking more and more like it's all a joke; I don't like partisan politics or single issue politics, I think they're divisive and irrelevant and a ploy to get people to not pay attention; intentional ploy or not intentional, that's the end result; everyone fights, money stays at the top, wars don't end and your job still sucks.

But it's a bit surprising to me that the Conservatives continue to be, by all appearances, jokes. The silly and dim-witted Sarah Palin, the crazy Bachmann, and the boring McCain. There's more, I know.

But this trend of crying all the time is the most gut-busting funny part of the whole dragged out fiasco. John Boehner, crying on 60 Minutes, crying in Congress, crying giving out awards: What the eff is wrong with him?! Are we supposed to believe these guys are sensitive?

Glenn Beck is over there with his wacked out theories about Obama and Socialism, looking like a corn-fed rich boy, whining that he can't get his way anymore because the horrid Reagan-Bush era is long dead. Of course, I"m happy that the Reagan-Bush era is dead, because back in that era it was cool to be a callous bigot, and I guess that's why Glenn is so heart-broken that we no longer live in that era. Worst of all, we have a black President which, no matter what anyone says, scares a lot of people to death; and I'm sure they feel that now it's their turn. I don't even agree with most of what Obama does, I think he's middle-of-the-road-do-nothing typical politician material and he's been sold and marketed to us like every President. I also doubt he's in charge; no President is in charge. But, nevertheless, America's fear that anyone not white might be in charge is evident. America has regard for only certain people.

So, the crying thing is hilarious to me, but I also put it on the list of Conservative fake pranks. Here's an episode of the Young Turks, exposing Glenn Beck's career in comical show boating.


While I'm about it, let's look at overly-tanned Boehner, doing the crying bit.



I mean, come on! These guys want to keep things as they are or go backwards to pre-Civil War days. They want to protect the rich, take from the poor, and keep the wars going. They miss the America that would have never elected a Black president, that didn't have cool techie corporations that take care of their employees, and they miss the America that catered to them and treated them like kings, in which they had the run of things, could do whatever they wanted to anyone they felt like doing it to and no one would say a word. Too bad, guys. It's over.
